Answer: Osmosis is the movement of water or other solvent through a plasma membrane from a region of low solute concentration to a region of high solute concentration, tending to equalise the concentrations of the solutes. Osmosis is passive transport, meaning it does not require energy to be applied.
Examples of osmosis in daily life include plant cells soaking up water, skin soaking up water, and slugs reacting to salt.
Answer:
<em><u>Eukaryotic cells</u></em> contain membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, while <em><u>prokaryotic cells</u></em> do not. Differences in cellular structure of prokaryotes and eukaryotes include the presence of mitochondria and chloroplasts, the cell wall, and the structure of chromosomal DNA.
The major purpose(s) of mitosis is for growth and to replace worn out cells.
Answer:
The fossil record supports a "biological" type of evidence.
Explanation:
<u>Fossils-</u> this refers to the <em>remains of prehistoric organism.</em><em> </em>It provides a trace of a <em><u>once-living plant, animal or organism. </u></em>
When it comes to evolution, fossils provide a biological type of evidence. This means that,<u><em> it shows how organism have greatly changed from the past.</em></u> When you study fossil records, you can compare it with the animal, plant or human structure nowadays. You can compare them side-by-side. So, you'd get that idea on how prehistoric things lived in the past and how they evolved up to the present day or became extinct.
<em>Most of the fossils can be found on sedimentary rocks.</em> You can also tell their ages according to which layer they belong. It is said that older layers consist of older fossils and they appear at the bottom while younger layers consist of younger fossils and they appear on top.
